Its a Dell Inspiron (Don't remember what model though :P ) here's the specs:

Core 2 Duo E4500.
ATI Radeon HD 2600XT.
2GB DDR2 667.
DVD Burner.
XP Home.

My parent's bought it as xmas present...sorta,it's still family computer since this Dimension 2400 is getting slower,but that should be fixed sooner or later so this computer will be completely mine :P

P.S. Why i'm getting dell is because my parent's can make payments on it,of course if i built it myself it'd be a LOT cheaper.

I can use this POS CRT,but sooner or later i'm gonna get a new 19" LCD,now i can actually play games good.

It should be here within 10 days as long as i keep a good attitude with my parents (Or else they'll cancel it :( )

Congrats dude. If the older dell dimension you have at least has a pentium 2 processor and 128MB Memory just format the computer and install a fresh copy of 2000 or XP. Other members in your family don`t play memory-intense games do they.

... well, alright, congrats, you got a new computer. But how well does it play games?

I'd imagine that it plays them pretty well. It certainly doesn't have the best specs... but it should play them better than any computer I have right now. What games are you running on it?
